AnnaSophia Robb Cast as Carrie Bradshaw in Carrie Diaries

AnnaSophia Robb Will Play Young Carrie Bradshaw in The Carrie Diaries

Carrie Bradshaw is coming back to TV — the younger version of her, anyway. The CW has been planning on bringing Sex and the City prequel The Carrie Diaries to its lineup, and it has finally cast the role that Sarah Jessica Parker made famous. AnnaSophia Robb will play the young Carrie Bradshaw in the 1980s-set series, which will follow the young fashionista's life in high school.

The Soul Surfer star might not bear the most striking resemblance to Parker, but she was certainly on our mind when news about The Carrie Diaries first came out, because we suggested her for the role. What do you think of Robb's casting as young Carrie?
